Free paint ….

paintcanThanks to Crystal for passing along this thrifty tip.

I just found a way to get paint for free that I hadn’t been aware of previously. We had quite a few large buckets of paint that we could not use, and wanted to get rid of. We took them to habitat for humanity but they can no longer accept paint from the public. They suggested that we take it to the landfill, so I called them (I live in Washington County UT). I found that they have a paint exchange program where you can drop off your paint (as long as it is still good and more than 1/4 full ) and you can take any paint you want for free.

Not sure if other landfills do this…but what a great way to keep it out of the landfill and to help someone else out.  Great for project that do not need a specific color!
